WAX202 access point mode- REMOTE ACCESS

Hi

 

I have deployed a couple of the above model in access point mode.

 

I just want to confirm that there is no way to access these remotely (from outside the LAN) while in access point mode? short of port forwarding from my router.

 

I don't actually want remote access, i want to ensure that the AP can only be configured from within the LAN. I cant find an option to turn remote access off or on from within the config page so assume that is the case but want to be sure.

 

Thanks.

Hello @trev1982,

 

And welcome to the NETGEAR Community! 🙂

 

That is correct, the WAX202 can only be configured in your local LAN. It does not have the option to be managed/accessed remotely.  

 


Have a lovely day,
